For the first time since parting ways with former skipper Alex Cora, the Red Sox front office addressed the media Wednesday afternoon.
Owner John Henry, chairman Tom Werner, president and CEO Sam Kennedy, and chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom took questions for nearly an hour, discussing Cora’s unceremonious departure, the search for a new manager, and the team’s approach moving forward.
Here’s what we learned:
- The Red Sox say they had no advanced knowledge of the findings in the report released by the league Monday. They met with Cora on Tuesday and mutually agreed it would be difficult to move forward based on what transpired in Houston.
